Open Enrollment Through
July 31
Invest in Your Peace of Mind
For just $65 per year, you and
your family receive emergency
ambulance services as often as
medically necessary throughout
most of Oregon
“…thank you for how great you were…
I always dread having to deal with the way (family)
treats any medical professionals.
You knew just how to handle (family) and made
the whole situation far less traumatic for my family.
Thank you all so much – and keep up the
great work for your community!” - J.D.
Methodist Church by Bishop
Grant Hagiya.
The appointment became
effective July 1, when the Rev.
Carol Thompson came out of
retirement to take the half-
time assignment.
She
takes
over
for
Reverends
Montee
and
Elizabeth Kennedy, who have
been interim pastors at FUMC
since January.
Thompson attended and
graduated from Lowell Union
High School in Lowell, Ore.
She received secondary
degrees from the University of
Oregon and Vancouver School
of Theology, Vancouver, B.C.
Over the years as a minister,
Thompson has served in six
United Methodist churches:
Nooksak Indian in Everson,
Wash.; Monroe, Ore.; Lyons,
Ore.; New Meadows, Idaho;
Jerome, Idaho; and Filer,
Idaho.
Additionally, she has had
three Extension Ministry
appointments beyond the local
church: the Western Small
C h u r c h
Rural Life
Center; the
Northwest
House
of
Theological
Studies; and
the Office of
Town and

“I prefer to work alongside
people with respect and open-
ness to accomplish whatever
needs to be done, to try new
things, and to learn from what
succeeds as well as from what
doesn’t go as well as had been
hoped for,” said Thompson. “I
believe one’s appointment is
to a congregation and the com-
munity of which it is a part, to
have a role in making the
church visible in the daily
lives of congregation and

8 am – Noon & 1 pm – 5 pm

ticipating in school and com-

Thompson’s mother and
brother live in Springfield.
She recently moved from
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, where
her daughter and son-in-law
live.
Her grandson, Weston,
recently graduated from high
